Miss Finland Sara Chafak Enjoys Bluffing

Born in 1990, Sara Chafak is much more than just a beautiful lady. She began her career in beauty contests in 2011, when she was the 1st runner up in the Miss Helsinki pageant. Just one year later she was crowned Miss Finland and she represented the country at the Miss Universe contest of 2012. 

She also took part in the Finnish version of Dancing on Ice, she appeared in other TV shows and music videos, but what really made her famous in the poker world was the bluffing of professional player Ronnie Bardah at the Pokerstars Shark Cage event. The video of her bluff became viral, and she remained in the world of poker ever since. 

The Shark Cage show introduced a concept where a player that gets bluffed is sent to a cage for one orbit, while if the bluff fails, the other player goes “to jail”. So besides the motivation to win big money, the players are also motivated to bluff by this fun rule. Ronnie and Sara eventually got to heads-up, and right from the start she was very eager to win the hand. 

Even though Ronnie had a better a pair of 4s right from the start, he initially placed just a small bet of $ 15,000, which Sara immediately raised to $ 30,000. He had no choice but to call. Then the turn showed another 4, and Ronnie was now having trips. But he decided to check and was planning on raising after her next small bet. But she bet $ 55,000 which really confused Ronnie. 

Even though the clock was ticking, Ronnie quickly decided to Raise $ 155,000. But Sara was really determined to win this hand and raised even further, to $ 255,000. At this point Ronnie was really confused, wondering if she has a KQ or she is just bluffing. But he never played with her before and doesn’t really know her style of playing and strategies. 

The river doesn’t really change anything. Ronnie still has trip 4s, while Sara only has a high card. He checks and this is when Sara makes the decisive move – she goes all-in! Ronnie is absolutely shocked and doesn’t really know what to believe. He takes plenty of time to think this over and he even shows his hand, trying to get a reaction from Sara. But she maintains her calm and doesn’t give him any clue at all. He then asks for even more time to think, consuming all of his time bank, and eventually he concludes that she can’t be bluffing at this point. So he decides to fold. 

Then she shows her cards and Ronnie simply can’t believe that this happened to him. Sara pulls out the bluffing card, sends Ronnie to the cage and skyrockets her career in poker. 

So now you know exactly how Miss Finland Sara Chafak bluffed a Pro player at the Pokerstars Shark Cage Event.
